LA Off-Season In A Nutshell

[InstantRockstar 1,243]

The off-season has really only begun to kickoff with a few tasks as a new GM, but it's been an eventful one thus far. The two major 'accomplishments' that have been achieved in LA are the raising of the banners for three excellent members of LA, alongside a flurry of trades that has seen the entire roster shaken and stirred. Below are the "in's" and "outs" of LA from every deal. 

 

IN TO LA
Deagun Rust (from Seattle)

Sebastien Dokis (from Seattle)
Cooper Skambraks (from Moscow)

Eldon Escobar (from Moscow)
Cameron Elsby (from Helsinki)

Magnus Verlander (from Helsinki)
Barron Kruulenstien (from Warsaw)

Tater Tot (from Warsaw)
S83 4th Round Pick (WAR)
S83 4th Round Pick (MOS)

S84 2nd Round Pick (PRG, from WAR)

S84 2nd Round Pick (HEL)
S85 1st Round Pick (SEA)
S85 3rd Round Pick (SEA)

OUT OF SEATTLE

Henri le Massif (to Moscow)

Tavish DeGroot (to Warsaw)

Tui Sova (pending FA, to Warsaw)
Jan Hlozek (pending FA, to Warsaw)

So a lot of players, prospects and picks into LA, and a lot of very skilled, dynamic players out of LA. As we reported last week, LA was going to be going through a rebuild and the pieces obtained by LA will help do just that. The LA Stars former GM had already prepared them for a bit of a rebuild by acquiring some picks in the S84 draft, and these new assets help bolster that future build down the line, now having multiple picks in S83, S84 and S85. LA was also able to bring in very many helpful prospects, as well as some roster players that can fill the gap and potentially be used as depth down the road during the competitive seasons for LA. Overall... a very fantastic turnout!
